Won’t let DH keep shoes on entry shoe rack

[Sundaya]

Yes, there is a shoe rack in my house’s entryway, but I would prefer to only keep one pair of shoes per person there. I begrudgingly let DH keep two of his pairs there. He says it’s inefficient to not fill the rack completely and wants to keep more there. But the entryway is not a closet! AIBU?

I can't get over you "letting" your husband keep two pairs of shoes there.

Are you Marie Kondo?

Is it only your house? Why are you in charge?

You say the entryway is not a closet but if you've put a shoe rack there why wouldn't you use it?

We have a shoe cabinet at the door and its full, probably about 3 pairs per family member there. Isn't that what its there for?

What’s the point of a shoe rack if not to put shoes on?

I'm sorry but I am actually laughing out loud to this! You would never imagine yourself, young and searching for love and a husband, to end up fighting over how many pairs of shoes are allowed on a rack.

I am certainly capable of pettiness, and my husband is pure practicality, but I think having a handful of pairs is ok.

😂

Do people really live like this? It’s a shoe rack for god sake, it’s for shoes!
Let the man put his shoes there instead of abiding by the bizarre rules you have made up.

I would store all my shoes in the rack if you told me I wasn't allowed to.

Buy a smaller shoe rack.
If the space is there it should be used. 4 pairs each here

I'd expect to fully use it but not so it looks crowded and untidy.

One row per user. They fill it or not.

Actually my dd and dh have two rows each but I only have one. It made me realise my husband has more shoes and more coats than three women put together (other dd moved out, first dd took over her row).

Have you written him an official rule book? Do you have coat hooks? How many coats is he allowed on there?

Bloody hell. If you told me I could only keep one pair of shoes on a rack with space for more I would keep all my shoes on there and stack them as high as I could.

Controlling, much?!

When he decides to leave them lying about on the doormat or in the corridor then I hope you'll remember that he wanted to use the shoe rack but you wouldn't "allow" him to.

Why do you get the final say?

If someone had said "My husband only lets me keep one pair of shoes on the shoe rack." this thread would be filled with LTB 😂

Yes you are being unreasonable. It's a shoe rack. Literally a place to put shoes.

Is this a decorative shoe rack?

What the actual fuck.

Are you thos controlling about everything?

Surely life is too short to be arguing over a shoe rack?

Perhaps it’s crying out for a stunt pineapple instead

Imagine telling your husband where he can keep his shoes in his own house?

It's a shoe rack not an ornament.

Stealth boasting about having a DH who knows what a shoe rack is? I'd be over joyed if my DH starting putting any of his shoes on the shoe rack.
